Urology Residency

Printable Version

The Dartmouth Urology Residency is dedicated to providing residents with not only basic science and clinical knowledge, but also with urologic skills sufficient to permit the private or academic practice of urology at graduation. The program encompasses the scientific basis of urologic pathophysiology and therapeutics, decision making in urologic diagnosis and management, urologic surgical technique and socioeconomic perspectives of urologic practice.

Residents are exposed to the continuum of urologic care, through the outpatient clinic, the outpatient surgical unit, the inpatient service, the consultation service and the Emergency Room.

The performance of all major surgical cases by the residents under direct supervision by the responsible surgeon is encouraged. Residents acquire an understanding of basic principles of research through their involvement in research activity.

The program involves the Section of Urology and the Department of Surgery at Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital, The Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic, and Dartmouth Medical School (Lebanon, NH campus) the Veterans Affairs Medical and Regional Officer Center, White River Junction, VT, and Concord Urology in Concord, NH.
